On Tuesday, Jared, his staff, friends, and family, finally saw the ultimate result of their hard work and sacrifices for the past year and a half as he was elected to serve in the United States House of Representatives next year. Jared won by a convincing margin, 60% to 36%, over his primary opponent, Scott … Continue reading Election Night with Jared Polis
Today is finally election day! For Jared, it’s been one and half years of hard campaigning. Today, he did his final Honk and Wave in Boulder before heading to Longmont, Colorado, to help out with Betsy Markey’s campaign. Heading down to downtown Denver for the Democratic Election Party. So, without further ado, some photos from … Continue reading Election Day Morning and Afternoon
Here’s a random set of photos from the last day before Election 2008. It’s been a long campaign and everyone is ready to move on with the next project. For Jared, hopefully that will be a Congressional Seat in Colorado’s District 2. For me, it’ll be back to the Bay Area to work on the … Continue reading Final Hours Before Election
Our last stop of the day was to The Meridian Retirement Community in Boulder. As at Northglenn Heights, the staff arranged for interested members to meet, greet, and ask questions to Jared. One of the attendees was Boulder native and 99-year old Mildred Walton. She’s turning 100 years old on November 7! That’s got to … Continue reading Meridian Retirement Community
For our final event of the morning, Jared made an appearance and spoke with members at two assisted living care centers. I wasn’t allowed to photograph at the first one, but I had ample opportunities to do so at the Northglenn Heights Assisted Living and Memory Care Center in Northglenn, Colorado. Jared spoke with members … Continue reading Northglenn Heights Assisted Care Center

We were … Continue reading Thornton Park-N-Ride

All across Colorado (and the country), there are these canvass centers where people come to work the phone bank and organize walks through neighborhoods to talk to voters. Jared delivered pizza and rallied the troops at these centers. Seeing him speak to some … Continue reading Canvassing
On Saturday morning, Jared greeted shoppers at the final Boulder County Farmer’s Market of the year. The weather was wonderful and many a happy smile met Jared as he walked through the pedestrian thoroughfare. Though I shouldn’t be surprised, I’m still a little taken aback by all of the people who came up to him, … Continue reading Boulder County Farmer's Market
Here are photos from Jared’s visits to his campaign headquarters and the joint Obama/Udall/Polis campaign office. The level of coordination is pretty cool at these offices; I saw volunteers from California and New York. Since Colorado is a swing state (that’s been leaning blue the past several elections), volunteers from definite blue states have been … Continue reading Campaign Headquarters
On Friday afternoon, we attended the annual Munchkin Masquerade on Pearl Street in downtown Boulder, Colorado. Kids and parents of all ages were dressed in their Halloween Costumes. Jared, still in his Colorado Rockies #45 uniform, handed out candy to the kids and spoke with the parents about the upcoming election. There were a lot … Continue reading Munchkin Masquerade and Pearl Street
